Gateway Regional Arts Center

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A WP:BEFORE search fails to find substantial references to the center other than a small handful of events listings noting it as a venue. Chetsford (talk) 00:48, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Once again Chetsford has failed to do a proper WP:BEFORE. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A tip off is that in the article it says "the building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places". FloridaArmy (talk) 01:24, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Per WP:GEOFEAT National Historic Landmarks are inherently notable and non-landmark NRHP properties can be notable provided "verifiable information beyond simple statistics are available". Chetsford (talk) 02:01, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * National Register of Historic Places registrstion documents don't establish notability? Can you point me to where that consensus was reached? FloridaArmy (talk) 02:16, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I just directed you to our policy regarding WP:GEOFEAT, above. According to it "verifiable information beyond simple statistics" must be available. The article is sourced to the website of a local soapmaking convention and a chamber of commerce site which just lists its street address. If you have something more detailed or complex, though, I'd strongly encourage you to add it. As I described, I was unable to locate a WP:RS offering greater depth of coverage but it's possible you might have some I didn't find. Chetsford (talk) 02:18, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep and merge with the existing article at Mount Sterling United Methodist Church. The building is on the NRHP registry; the registration form can be read here. It's notable. The current use of the building as an arts center is verifiable and relevant to the building (e.g. ; there's also a detailed article here which is a blog but may qualify as reliable expert-written material under WP:SPS.) I don't think we need two articles, so we should merge them together under whatever title the editors like best, with redirects from the others. --Arxiloxos (talk) 22:30, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge and withdraw delete nomination per Arxiloxos's reasoning. Chetsford (talk) 00:27, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
